Exactly a year ago I picked up 4 fruits of a 12 feet high tree having white canopy of flowers.
Only one sprouted and is growing fast.
A friend of mine who has a nursery saw it and asked me what it was, I gave him the back ground, he laughed and told me the tree was growing at Liberty round about, sure enough it is,

but he did not know what it was.

Looks like a tree in Texas with white flowers. See if this is the same as what you have in your memory

And I found the shrub in bloom only a 100 yards from my gate in PHA nursery.
